Are you wondering where on earth to find the readers you know will love your book?

Does the idea of communicating with them once you find them give you a mild (or major) anxiety attack?

Are you overwhelmed by the 8,946 options you’re hearing you should use to connect with and market to new readers?

FAQs

How much time is required?

From Manuscript to Market is run as a course and an optional bootcamp. As such, the pace is completely yours to establish. The bootcamp component is specifically designed for the busy person who thrives on accountability and clearly stated tasks. Your lifetime access ensures that you can revisit lessons, access new lessons and review key points anytime you’d like!

If you can carve out as few as 30 minutes per day, you will be amazed by how quickly your author platform comes together.

What if I have to take a break?

No problem! The beauty of unlimited, lifetime access is that it removes all of the pressure. If a life event occurs unexpectedly and you need to step away for a few days (or even a few weeks), the course and all of our support will be here for you when you get back.

If you ever want to go back and review material, you can do that as well.

What if the next bootcamp features are "better?"

Here’s the deal: I’m a perfectionist. There. I said it. As such, I regularly update and add content to my courses all the time. And you will have access to all of it. As the content updates, you will see the updates/upgrades/additions each time you login.

Even better — with each major addition/upgrade, the price of the bootcamp will increase. But not for you! You pay one time and have access to the latest and greatest forever. Nice deal, eh?
